The Bloods continue to lead the way

West Adelaide leads the way after six rounds in the SANFL.

For the first time this season, there was a full card of four Saturday afternoon matches

The Bloods were the day's biggest winners, as they atoned for last week's disappointing loss to Port with a 76 point thrashing of the hapless Panthers at Richmond Oval.

Daniel Webb booted five majors as the home side won 20-13-133 to 8-9-57.

Reigning premier Central District is second on the ladder after a 24 point win against Sturt.

The Bulldogs kicked 16-7-103 to the Double Blues' 11-13-79 to post their first win at Unley Oval from their past seven attempts.

Alan Obst and Daniel Havelberg kicked four goals apiece for the Dogs, while Matthew Duldig was again impressive for Sturt with five.

There was also a five-goal haul for Glenelg forward Todd Grima.

It helped his side stage its second big comeback at the Bay this year to beat North Adelaide by seven points.

The Roosters had led by as much as six goals in the third term, but the Tigers fought back to win 16-13-109 to 16-6-102.

Chad Cornes pushed his claims for an immediate recall to Port's AFL side with 28 disposals for the Bays.

James Allan kicked four goals for North, all in the first term.

And the Eagles finished strongly at Woodville Oval to defeat Port by 19 points.

The Magpies led by two points at the final change, but the Eagles booted five goals to two in the last quarter to win 15-7-97 to 12-6-78

Out of favour Crows midfielder Bernie Vince kicked two important final term goals for the home side and finished with a game-high 33 touches.
